Articles was PROD'ed with the rationale Club has never played in the top ten levels of the English football league system or in the FA Cup or FA Vase, the general criteria for club notability as per the WP:FOOTBALL project, then PROD2'ed, but then, as per the usual, the PROD was removed by an IP with no explanation. Judging from the pictures on the club's official website their ground does not have floodlights and therefore, contrary to what the article claims, the club is not in fact eligible to enter the Cup or Vase ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:01, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Without passing comment on the eligibility of the article, the website features photos of the ground which contain things which look like floodlights to me. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 07:56, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I had a good look through and I can't see any. If you have a look at the pictures on this page they clearly play on what appears to be little more than a public park pitch, without even a railed off pitch let alone floodlighting -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:16, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The first one on this page has distinctly floodlight-shaped things. Err, yes, pointed at what looks like a five-a-side pitch next to the park itself. So ignore me. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 09:13, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regardless of the standard of their ground, though, the fact is that they have not entered either the Cup or Vase for the coming season (see here and here for the lists of clubs accepted into each competition) and play in a level 11 league, below the normally accepted cut-off point -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:18, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete and give the IP that deprodded it a good dose of WP:TROUT. Next time I see an article deprodded anonymously I think I'm going to scream. пﮟოьεԻ 57 11:41, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
